This is page 494 of the guide to the World's Columbian Exposition. It contains an advertisement for Rogers & Brothers of Waterbury Connecticut and New York for the Columbia pattern. The advertisement claims it was made and named for the exhibition. They invite the reader to visit their booth in the building for manufacturers and liberal arts. The backstamp they list is (star) Rogers & Bros., A.1.

ReplyDeleteI can't thank you for for all of your time consuming, hard work on this! I have a large collection of Rogers Brothers silverware that I got out of an old abandoned house that was about to be torn down by the city of Vici Oklahoma. Now I'm going to go through all of it, sort it by the pattern & then polish it so I can sell it on eBay! I can't tell you how much I appreciate you doing this! I've had this silverware for 25 years just sitting in my laundry room cabinet. Thank you, Leisa Wilson https://www.ebay.com/usr/turkeycreekgal
